To see past appearance, is to practice a level of leadership not often found. Why? It is a painful and lonely place to go. Vaclave Havel says that modern man is less and less interested in the meaning of his life. This trend is troublesome…especially in a world where things are changing so rapidly.
So how do leaders (the real ones) see past appearances? The following is partial and not all inclusive:
- They wait…
- They eliminate distractions that cause them to stray.
- They constantly reflect.
- They know what they were born to do.
- They understand that often things are not as they seem.
